Abstract

This paper is a study of Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway and measuring the settlement values of the Bridge with the time and load. The structure is safe to carry the applied loads. The settlement is measured using the single point of settlement account meter and calculated using the norm codes. The results showed a new field measurement method to calculate the compressed layer thickness which is considered as a difficult task to monitor in the field. The final results calculated for the settlement of the pile foundation needed correction of factors to be conservative for the measurement of the project. The correction factors are proposed to modify the codes calculation within the permissible ranges.

Keywords: Bridge engineering, compressed layer thickness, correction factor, designed codes, high-speed railways.
